U.S. Bureau of the Census: facing the future labor shortage.

"This article begins with a brief overview of the [U.S.] Census Bureau's preparations for the future, then discusses the demographic and social changes that are affecting the national labor force, from which the Census Bureau hires its workers. The final section considers how the bureau and its mission are affected by these changes."

Chicken chromosomal protein HMG-14 and HMG-17 cDNA clones: isolation, characterization and sequence comparison.

A cDNA clone coding for the chicken high-mobility group 14 (HMG-14) mRNA has been isolated from a chicken-liver cDNA library by screening with two synthetic oligodeoxynucleotide pools whose sequences were derived from the partial amino acid sequence of the HMG-14 protein. A chicken HMG-17 cDNA clone was also isolated in a similar fashion. Comparison of the two chicken HMG cDNA clones to the corresponding human cDNA sequences shows that chicken and human HMG-14 mRNAs and polypeptides are considerably less similar than are the corresponding HMG-17 sequences. In fact, the chicken HMG-14 is almost as similar to the chicken HMG-17 in amino acid sequence as it is to mammalian HMG-14 polypeptides. HMG-14 and HMG-17 mRNAs seem to contain a conserved sequence element in their 3'-untranslated regions whose function is at present unknown. The chicken HMG-14 and HMG-17 genes, in contrast to their mammalian counterparts, appear to exist as single-copy sequences in the chicken genome, although there appear to exist one or more additional sequences which partially hybridize to HMG-14 cDNA. Chicken HMG-14 mRNA, about 950 nucleotides in length, was detected in chicken liver RNA but was below our detection limits in reticulocyte RNA.
